Wanting a rubber boot for early season because all I have is artic sport muck boots and they're way too hot early September and October. Just looking to do some research, thanks in advance! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I wear just basic old green rubber boots. I think I actually bought them from a friend of mine like 10 years ago for $9. He wanted ten but I got him down to 9.
I'm using a Lacrosse Grange that I've had for almost 25 years. I'd like to upgrade to an Alpha Burly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I love my Irish Setter Rut Masters.. you might pay a little more, but they're totally worth it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
My feet sweat entirely too much in rubber boots so I rarely hunt in them. I have a pair of LaCrosse Quick Shots that I love, but unfortunately they stopped making them and after 3 years of abuse they're showing some wear. I'll most likely pick up a set of Danner Vitals or Pronghorns before the season starts. When I do wear rubber boots I really like my Alpha Burly Pros. I hiked almost 20 miles in them scouting in KS this spring without a single issue.
I have a pair of uninsulated Danner Pronghorns which arent bad for a Chinese made boot. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Warmer than 70* or if above 50* and I plan to do a lot of walking (stalking) I'll use my IrishSetter Vaprtreks which are almost light/comfy as a pair of good running shoes. if the high temp is under 70* I will wear LaCrosse AB Sports- great boots from 65-35*. Colder than that I actually wear Sportmans Guide 1000gram boots with good socks and I'm good down to 20* or so. Colder than 20* and I'm in Cabela's pac boots cursing my bad luck for not filling my tags earlier.
A lot of love for the alpha burlys, I was looking at them yesterday and love the feel and look of them but was still thinking my feet would sweat bad in them. But they would be better than the artic sports so I think I might give them a try! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
My feet sweat awful in any type of rubber or neoprene boots. With how wet it's been I've had to wear my Aerohead Sports when working on my lease for almost all summer. If I have to wear that style boots, I think the Alpha Burly's are my favorite and the Aerohead Sports are behind them. I'll be wearing LaCrosse Quad Comfort boots this year most of the season until it gets really cold.
Im trying the uninsulated UA Haw Madillo this year. Got them on a good deal. They fit really well. I know, I know UA. Cue the crazy. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00M0ECVHE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I wear my AB's all season until it's consistently hitting under 30 degrees all day. That being said, they're cracked in a few spots, so I need something new this season.
I wear light weight hiking/hunting boots like my Zamberlane 1013 leopards . I also just bought a pair of crispi Wyoming GTX. They double as light weight early season elk and mule deer boots.
